1948 Map of Chippewa Bay

USGS Topo · Published 1948

About this map

St Lawrence River island life and international navigation are the primary focus of this late 1940s survey. The map details the complex shoreline and archipelago near Chippewa Bay, where numerous named islands like Dark Island, Cedar Island State Park, and Middle Island are scattered across the water. On the Canadian side, the Canadian Pacific railroad runs parallel to King's Highway No 2, serving settlements like Mallorytown. This era of river history is marked by the active presence of navigation aids, including the Sister Island Lighthouse, Third Brother Lighthouse, and Bridge Island Lighthouse. On the New York shore, rural development is anchored by School No 6 and the recreational grounds of Kring Point State Park. The map also captures the intricate marshlands surrounding Crooked Creek and Goose Bay, providing a clear record of the river's ecological and human geography before mid-century modernization.
